2 THE CHALLENGE The World s 6th largest land mass 9th lowest population density

3 OUR NEXT G NETWORK A HYBRID HSPA+/LTE NETWORK 2.3 Million km 2 Coverage Plus over 1 Million km 2 out to sea. 99% Population Coverage 99% Population coverage of HSPA+ No requirement for 2G fall back 80% DC-HSPA, 40% LTE Pops covered expanding to 66% pops by June 2013^. High performing Network Multi-Gigabit capable Ethernet fibre to sites covering >93% of pops. Well under 1% voice drop rate World s largest HD Voice footprint (circuit voice) Low band 850 MHz HSPA for wide and deep coverage High performing business Low churn rate 4G (LTE) capable devices seamlessly operate across Telstra s 4G and 3G coverage areas including 3G HSPA+ and Dual Channel which are available in selected areas. > 1.4M 4G services 13% PostP H/H,17% MBB pen of LTE. * Network performance stats are based on Telstra s National Field Testing #9 conducted in July 2012

Typical customer speeds are lower as shown. * 4G SPEEDS: With capable devices customers can experience typical download speeds of 2Mbps 40Mbps, and typical upload speeds of 1Mbps 10Mbps in all capital CBD s (meaning within 5km from the GPO), associated airports and selected regional areas (meaning 3km of the regional town centre) covering more than 40% of the population. In other coverage areas, customers will automatically switch over to Telstra s fastest available 3G HSPA (High Speed Packet Access technology) enabled network speeds. # 3G HSPA ENABLED SPEEDS: With capable devices customers can experience typical download speeds of 1.1Mbps 20Mbps in all capital CBD s, airports, much of the associated metropolitan areas and many regional areas covering more than 80% of the population. Outside these areas, the remaining metropolitan areas and many other regional and rural locations typical download speeds are 550kbps to 8Mbps covering more than 97% of the population, and elsewhere 550kbps to 3Mbps.Typical customer upload speeds are 300kbps-3Mbps in all capital cities and major regional areas covering more than 93% of the population and elsewhere 300kbps-1Mbps. Subject to government auction process. NOTE: Speeds may vary due to factors such as location, distance from the base station, local conditions, concurrent users, hardware and software configuration.
